Best vehicle I have ever owned

Awesome vehicle. Needed to upgrade to 3rd row for the newest addition to my family next month. Huge step up from my last vehicle. Very blessed.

So fun to drive!

The Explorer Sport is so much fun to drive, twin turbo and all! It accelerates easily while shifting seamlessly! Quite comfortable as well for longer trips!

Best Uber car ever except for gas

Pretty nice SUV. Cops don't really mess with you in it. I gotten a lot of compliments in it while doing Lyft and uber. Especially for a 2015 not bad Ford, good job Ford.

This is my third explorer and I love them

Very nice ride and good preformance. A little under powered, but overall good. Comfortable drive and the interior is nice. This one has the tow package and pulls my boat fine.

Most reliable vehicle for time owned, 4 years.

This vehicle was purchased as a replacement for a 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trail Hawk LEMON!!!!! One of Jeep’s poor transmission designs (9 speed) that they sold knowing of the transmissions defects. This Ford Explorer is an exceptional vehicle!!!

Happy car ownet

We live in Galveston so there is always a risk of high water and the potential to evacuate. We have several animals and this vehicle will fit our needs.

worst car ever

With only 24,500 miles, the front steering started making a noise, like a creaking wooden sailing ship. It din't do it all the time, so we thought maybe it was just under wet conditions. Around 26,000 mi, it would make the noise more often. It could only be heard from within the passenger cabin. Took it in to see what was up, and found that the front suspension strut & coil assembly needed to be replaced! The left strut was not centered on the mount. The right side was also off. Because we owned a second car that was driven during the winter, we had surpassed our 3 year warranty date! Had it pay for the replacement, and now it is doing the same thing! This is our first and last Ford!

Most spacious and comfortable car I've had!

This car met my needs. It is spacious for my 3 kids and their friends, with plenty of room on the third row sit. The remote key and keyless start is very useful, specially summer time, when you can leave the car locked but running, so the AC is still cooling.
